Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our services, expertise, and how we work.
What services does Zic0n Engineering provide?
Zic0n Engineering provides comprehensive civil engineering services including geotechnical and geo-structural design, transportation and roadway design, pavement engineering, asphalt materials testing, instrumentation programs, and data analytics. We serve energy, DOT, water, and industrial markets.
Where is Zic0n Engineering located?
Zic0n Engineering has headquarters in San Diego, CA and a regional hub in Philadelphia, PA. We serve clients throughout the United States, including West Coast, Southwest, Mountain States, and Mid-Atlantic regions.
What makes Zic0n Engineering unique?
Zic0n is co-founded by two Ph.D. P.E.s who combine deep research expertise with practical engineering experience. We integrate machine learning, advanced analytics, and research-backed methodologies into our engineering solutions. Our partner-led approach ensures direct involvement of senior engineers in every project.
Are your engineers licensed?
Yes, both co-founders are licensed Professional Engineers (P.E.) with multi-state licensure. All engineering work is performed under the direct supervision of licensed engineers in compliance with state licensing requirements.
Do you work on federal projects?
Yes, we provide select services for USACE (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) and NAVFAC (Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command) projects, in addition to state DOT, energy, water, and industrial projects.
How do you use machine learning in engineering?
We apply machine learning techniques to predict infrastructure performance, optimize maintenance strategies, and analyze large datasets. Our research includes pavement deterioration prediction, roughness index forecasting, and performance modeling. These methods complement traditional engineering approaches to provide more accurate predictions and cost-effective solutions.
What types of projects do you typically handle?
We handle projects ranging from small site investigations to large infrastructure programs. Typical projects include solar and BESS foundation design, highway rehabilitation, pavement performance studies, deep foundation design, levee assessments, and materials testing programs. Project sizes vary from feasibility studies to complete design and construction support.
